Evaluating the perceived outcome and impact of an integrated knowledge translation approach in the development of an equity reporting guideline
Integrated knowledge translation (IKT) involves active engagement of knowledge users in co-producing research, ensuring their perspectives shape study design, analysis, and reporting. This can strengthen justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) considerations. We adopted an IKT approach in developing STROBE-Equity, an equity-focused reporting guidelin extension. The perceived value of embedding JEDI principles in reporting guideline devel…
Exploring perspectives of knowledge users about reporting on health equity in observational studies
BACKGROUND: Health inequities arising from systemic factors and contextual conditions result in avoidable and unjust differences in health outcomes, with profound social and economic implications. Health inequities can frequently go unreported in observational studies. Observational studies can uniquely inform how we understand and address persisting health inequities through collecting, reporting and analyzing health equity factors using 'inclus…
Navigating vaccine access, trust, coercion and regret
Since the COVID-19 pandemic routine vaccination rates have dropped in Canada. Many newcomers and refugees experience significant vaccine inequities despite wide vaccine availability and COVID-19 pandemic vaccination campaigns. We aimed to investigate post-pandemic vaccine hesitancy, acceptance, and vaccine outreach strategies among newcomers’ communities. We conducted a community-based-participatory research (CBPR) qualitative study with self-ide…

Transition in care interventions for Refugee, Immigrant and other Migrant (RIM) populations
BACKGROUND: Transition in care involves the transfer of responsibility for aspects of patient and public health care among providers, institutions, and health and social sectors. Indeed, health systems increasingly require individuals to interact with a number of providers, in a number of health settings, and across multiple points of time. Refugees, immigrants, and migrant (RIM) individuals face several precarious transitions, language and cultu…
Reporting of equity in observational epidemiology
Background: Observational studies can inform how we understand and address persisting health inequities through the collection, reporting and analysis of health equity factors. However, the extent to which the analysis and reporting of equity-relevant aspects in observational research are generally unknown. Thus, we aimed to systematically evaluate how equity-relevant observational studies reported equity considerations in the study design and an…
Improving social justice in observational studies
Achieving global imperatives such as the Sustainable Development Goals (e.g., SDG 10 Reduced inequalities, SDG 3 Good health and wellbeing) requires advancing health equity in research. The implementation of the STROBE-Equity guidelines will enable a better awareness and understanding of health inequities through better reporting. We will broadly disseminate the reporting guideline with tools to enable adoption and use by journal editors, authors…
Vaccines for all
Diverse stakeholders almost universally felt that this community-engaged COVID-19 vaccine outreach clinic achieved its goals and was scalable. These findings support the value of community-engaged outreach to improve vaccine equity among other marginalized newcomer communities
Health Equity Implications of the Covid-19 Lockdown and Visitation Strategies in Long-Term Care Homes in Ontario
The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the lives and well-being of long-term care home residents. This mixed-method study examined the health equity implications of the COVID-19 lockdown and visitation strategies in long-term care homes in Ontario. We recruited long-term care home residents, their family members and designated caregivers, as well as healthcare workers from 235 homes in Ontario, Canada. We used online surveys and virtual in…
Access to Refugee and Migrant Mental Health Care Services during the First Six Months of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the mental health of refugees and migrants. This study aimed to assess refugee clinician perspectives on mental health care during the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically access to and delivery of community mental health care services. We utilized a mixed methods design. We surveyed members of a national network of Canadian clinicians caring for refugees and migrants. Seventy-seven clinicians with exper…

Determinants of Implementation of a Clinical Practice Guideline for Homeless Health
Clinical practice guidelines can improve the clinical and social care for marginalized populations, thereby improving health equity. The aim of this study is to identify determinants of guideline implementation from the perspective of patients and practitioner stakeholders for a homeless health guideline. We completed a mixed-method study to identify determinants of equitable implementation of homeless health guidelines, focusing on the Grading o…
Heia tools
This paper introduces the Migrant Populations Equity Extension for Ontario’s Health Equity Impact Assessment (HEIA) initiatives. It provides a mechanism to address the needs of migrant populations, within a program and policy framework. Validation of an equity extension framework using community leaders and health practitioners engaged in HEIA workshops across Ontario. Participants assessed migrants’ health needs and discussed how to integrate th…
Bibliometric analysis of global migration health research in peer-reviewed literature (2000–2016)
Our heat map of research output shows that despite the ever-growing prominence of human mobility across the globe, and Sustainable Development Goals of leaving no one behind, research output on migrants' health is not consistent with the global migration pattern. A stronger evidence base is needed to enable authorities to make evidence-informed decisions on migration health policy and practice. Research collaboration and networks should be encour…
Building Responsive Health Systems to Help Communities Affected by Migration
Policy makers need tools, data and resources to address health systems challenges. Policies need to avoid preventable deaths of migrants and barriers to basic health services

Considering health equity when moving from evidence-based guideline recommendations to implementation
The availability of evidence-based guidelines does not ensure their implementation and use in clinical practice or policy making. Inequities in health have been defined as those inequalities within or between populations that are avoidable, unnecessary and also unjust and unfair. Evidence-based clinical practice and public health guidelines ('guidelines') can be used to target health inequities experienced by disadvantaged populations, although g…
Primary Health Care Models Addressing Health Equity for Immigrants
Access to healthcare for the most vulnerable migrants
A series of Médecins Sans Frontières projects for irregular migrants over the past decade have consistently documented high rates of 14 physical and sexual trauma, extortion and mental illness amidst severe healthcare, food, and housing limitations. Complex interventions were needed to begin to address illness and barriers to healthcare and to help restore dignity to the most vulnerable women, children and men. Promising interventions included mo…

The Resettlement of Central American Men in Canada
Stress associated with immigration, particularly forced migration, may aggravate men’s emotional distress and reluctance to seek help. This qualitative study of Central American immigrant and refugee men explored the process of coping with distress during resettlement. “Losing the way,” a common theme of resettlement, was frequently a solitary struggle accompanied by anxiety, depression, and/or abusive behaviours. “Finding the way,” grieving soci…

Universal access
The Pool region of the Republic of Congo is an isolated, conflict-affected area with under-resourced and poorly functioning health care services. Despite significant AIDS-related mortality and morbidity in this area, and a national level commitment to universal HIV care, HIV has been largely neglected. In 2005 Médecins Sans Frontières decided to introduce HIV care activities. However, in this setting of high basic health care needs, limited medic…
